How did Solon contribute to the the rise of the democracy in ancient Greece?

Solon was appointed in the city-state of Athens for a year to resolve a looming revolution against oppressive rule and exploitation of the small-farming class by the aristocratic oligarchs. He was never there to push democracy, but rather to establish a more equitable balance between the two groups. He also arranged the buy-back of farmers who had been sold into slavery for debt. Power remained with the aristocratic Council of the Areopagus until 80 years later when Cleisthenes brought in a limited democracy with an assembly of all propertied men. The oligarchs returned to power during the Persian invasion, and held it for another 20 years until Ephialtes established a full democracy. The oligarchs assassinated him for this, but his deputy Pericles kept it going, and converted it to a radical democracy of direct rule by the citizen assembly.
